The disc could be scratched, or your laser could be dying

Isn't the game already on DVD? If you have a modchip or swap magic you could try making a backup copy of it and see if that works. Have a look in my sig. for a link on how to do this

They are ways to boot backup games, if you don't know what they are I assume you don't have them... have a search to see what these are.

Also without one of the two things above you can't burn a game and play it on the PS2, it won't work.

NO. Without a modchip or swap magic nothing that's burnt will work.

You can't copy a game - that's like burning an image file you've downloaded, it won't work.

If you've just bought the copy today, you should be able to exchange it for a new one
